ACT Brumbies vs Western Force Pre-season trial game Friday 7 February 2025

"Completely Damon Murphy'd"

Whinging about the referee in a pre-season hit out has to be close to a record.

I'm confident the Tahs have done better.

Probably whingeing about a ref in preseason.

Well X, like I said, that was a comment made by Brett McKay.I took it to mean Murphy was just being a pedantic twat as usual - for both teams.

I mean, that doesn't refute Xs point, It would appear that we STILL haven't got a plan to execute when a ref is being a pedantic twat who misses a bunch of stuff.

If I was planning for that circumstance, I'd prepare a set of procedures which are reliably unpenalisable and drill the living shit out of them, even if it's not the most effective gameplan. It's operate on the likelihood that, the other team will give up penalties on a regular basis and, if we're not gettign penalised, we'll do better.

That hasn't been done and I wonder why.
